Steve Clemons has the latest on Bolton

according to steve clemons at the washington note, white house chief of staff andy card has called senator harry reid on the bolton nomination following senator reid's firm proclaimed stance of "no information, no bolton..." again, according to steve, if andy says, "whaddaya need?" this should be reid's response...

Whadda We Need? Three things....simple really.

The NSA stuff alone -- too little, too late.

The Syria stuff alone -- make sure it's the whole package.

Freedman -- check his file and tell us what this guy was really doing? You wouldn't run a guy like Freedman on your White House personnel roster, would you?

It's real simple, Andy. . . THREE items. That's it. Then the Senators get to review, digest, and make a decision as to whether John Bolton has the kind of "impeccable credentials" that this job in the U.N. requires and whether or not Bolton is someone that Americans are going to be able to feel pride in his appointment.
